AMONG the many valuable contributions of William Dwight Whitney to
linguistic science is one especially important and fundamental
principle. It may be stated in these words. In explaining the
prehistoric phenomena of language we must assume no other factors than
those which we are able to observe and estimate in the historical
period of language development. The factors that produced changes in
human speech five thousand or ten thousand years ago cannot have been
essentially different from those which are now operating to transform
living languages. On the basis of this principle we look to-day at a
much-discussed problem of Indo-European philology with views very
different from the views held by the founders of Comparative Philology
and their immediate successors. I refer to the problem, how the
Indo-European people came to assign gender to nouns, to distinguish
between masculine, feminine, and neuter. This question is of interest
to others besides philologists. What man of culture who has learned
languages such as the Greek, Latin, or French has not at times
wondered that objects which have no possible connection with the
natural gender of animals appear constantly in the language as male or
female? In German, for example, it is der fuss, but die hand; der
geist, but die seele; in Latin, hīc hortus, hīc animus, hīc amor, but
haec planta, haec anima, haec felicitas; in Greek, ὁ πλοῦτος, ὁ οἶκος,
but ἡ πενία, ἡ οἰκία.

This gender distinction pervades all the older Indo-European
languages, and must therefore be regarded as having its origin in the
time of the pro-ethnic Indo-European community. Not only is the
subject itself full of interest, but also the treatment it has
received from the philological research of our century. The various
efforts made to solve the problem may very aptly illustrate an
essential difference which exists between the theories of language
development held in the beginning and middle of this century and those
which prevail to-day, — a difference of method existing not in
comparative linguistics alone, but also in other fields of
philological and historical research that border on it.
